The receipts and year of release of the five movies with the largest nominal box office revenues‚ along with the CPI data of each year are presented below. Assuming that the receipts for each of the movies were derived during their year of release‚ convert the receipts for each to real dollars for the year 2010 (2010 CPI 230.1). Put the movies in order from largest to smallest real box office receipts and show

What is the de nition of a weakly dominated strategy? Give an example of a two-player game matrix where one player has three strategies‚ one of which is strictly dominated; and the other player has three strategies‚ one of which is weakly (but not strictly) dominated. Indicate the dominated strategies. 2. Iterative

Unit 1 Problem Set 1 26. Surgery Versus Splints A study compared surgery and splinting for subjects suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome. It was found that among 73 patients treated with surgery‚ there was a 92% success rate. Among 83 patients treated with splints‚ there was a 72% success rate. Calculations using those results showed that if there really is no difference in success rates between surgery and splints‚ then there is about 1 chance in 1000 of getting success rates like the ones obtained

Quadratic Equations Equations Quadratic MODULE - I Algebra 2 Notes QUADRATIC EQUATIONS Recall that an algebraic equation of the second degree is written in general form as ax 2 + bx + c = 0‚ a ≠ 0 It is called a quadratic equation in x. The coefficient ‘a’ is the first or leading coefficient‚ ‘b’ is the second or middle coefficient and ‘c’ is the constant term (or third coefficient). For example‚ 7x² + 2x + 5 = 0‚ 5 1 x² + x + 1 = 0‚ 2 2 1 = 0‚ 2 x² + 7x = 0‚ are all

were to be put on a graph and connected‚ it would form a straight line. They are used to show a constant rate of change between two variables. A very simple example of a linear function would be that the relation between feet and inches is always 12 inches per foot. So‚ the function for this would be y=12x‚ where y is the number of inches and x would be the number of feet. This is how you would connect a situation to a linear function. If you use a linear function to make a graph‚ the connected
